Set both flags here so every pseudo filesystem gets\nthem by default instead of each caller setting them.\n\nSB_I_NODEV is inert for unreachable mounts. SB_I_NOEXEC has one\nvisible effect: an executable mapping of a pseudo-fs fd, such as a\ndma-buf, now fails with -EPERM, which is the invariant the assertion\nenforces. No in-tree caller maps these executable.\n\nReproduce on CONFIG_DEBUG_VFS=y:\n\n  make -C tools/testing/selftests/dmabuf-heaps\n  sudo ./tools/testing/selftests/dmabuf-heaps/dmabuf-heap -t system","published":"2026-08-06T08:16:35.000Z","lastModified":"2026-08-17T05:18:06.000Z","status":"Received","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":null,"cwe":[],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00206,"percentile":0.10595,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"unknown","text":"Not yet scored.
